Split Tickets Barnsley to Pontefract

[waytogo]

Is it possible to use a SY Travelmaster and a Darton - Pontefract season ticket on the fast services that only call at Wakefield and not Darton?

NRCoC Condition 19 allows you to use a combination of tickets for one journey.

If one of the tickets is a season and the other(s) is/are not, then the train does not need to call at any station.

The definition of Season tickets excludes PTE products such as a SY Travelmaster.

Therefore, you are combining one season and one non-season, so that's fine.

Thanks for that, the only thing concerning me is this paragraph from rail enquiries regarding the travelmaster.

On cross boundary rail services into and out of South Yorkshire they may only be used on journeys wholly within South Yorkshire. They can be used in conjunction with another ticket product provided that the train stops at the designated boundary station to permit passengers to alight.

That seems to suggest it can't be used for cross boundary travel when used in conjunction with another ticket?

Potentially NRCoC Section 1(d) may apply.

Tickets remain the property of the relevant Train Company. Each ticket is issued subject to:

(d) the conditions set out in the notices and other publications issued by
another person if the ticket enables you to use any of their goods or
services

If a Train Company’s special conditions apply to the use of a ticket, the seller will make
these clear to you:

The Train Companies may not give you less extensive
rights, except in the case of some types of reduced and discounted fare tickets where
the relevant condition(s) specifically allow them to do so.

Arguably, if the poster has found the conditions fairly easily, then I'm not sure it is "unclear".

Reduced and discounted? A travelmaster is more expensive than the Darton to Barnsley ticket - so it is hardly reduced or discounted, surely?
